S-Clarke Posted 11 May, 2012 Share Posted 11 May, 2012 Lasse Schone? a 25 year old Attacking goal scoring central midfielder who plays for NEC.

Dr. Kucho Posted 11 May, 2012 Share Posted 11 May, 2012 Lasse Schone signed a 3 year contract at Ajax a few weeks ago, and the goalkeeper we were linked to in January Robin Ruiter has signed for Utrecht. I reckon Nigel might have been looking at Vurnon Anita from Ajax, a defensive midfielder who has been linked to clubs abroad or maybe Niklas Moisander from AZ Alkmaar, a defender and the captain of AZ. Other players linked to clubs around Europe are Otman Bakkal from Feyenoord and Jens Toornstra from ADO Den Haag. Jan Vertonghen from Ajax has stated he will be leaving Ajax this summer, most likely to Spurs or Manure. If Adkins and Cortese can pull that transfer of it would be the deal of the century.

Dr. Kucho Posted 11 May, 2012 Share Posted 11 May, 2012 It would indeed. Seriously doubt it will happen. It wont happen, Vertonghen has stated he only wants to move to a club playing Champions League. Zoet is indeed on loan from PSV, though at the start of the season PSV bought a young goalkeeper (Tyton) from Roda JC and Zoet wants to play regular football. Zoet is highly rated in The Netherlands and one of the big surprises this season of the Eredivisie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sour Mash Posted 11 May, 2012 Share Posted 11 May, 2012 Only 2 games yesterday - NEC v Vitesse and RKC v Twente. So that narrows it down, sort of. Likely they'd have watched a game, but could equally have been over meeting with other players/agents/managers etc. Holland is exactly the sort of place we should be looking for Premier League quality bargains.

Dr. Kucho Posted 12 May, 2012 Share Posted 12 May, 2012 And the keeper from Arnhem,Velthuizen is it? is he any good. Velthuizen has just signed a new contract with Vitesse. My mate reckons he would be a gamble, he played 1 season in Spain for Hercules and that didn't work out. Mate of mine lives in the same village as Velthuizen and knows him, says he is arrogant and he thinks himself he is greatest goalkeeper around.
